Abstract: Critic spirit is the independent skeptical spirit of being not only authority, being not only classicalism and being not only others. To train postgraduates’ critic spirit is the intrinsic need of constructing innovation-type country, the support of elevating the postgraduates’ overall quality, and their ability in coping with challenge and at the same time an inevitable choice of creating world’s first-class universities. To train postgraduates’ critic spirit can start from aspects as the reform of the state education administration system, the construction of the academic critic atmosphere, the construction of advisor team, the study of theoretic and academic knowledge, the academic thinking training and the development of research study so as to establish a systematic training system.

Key words: postgraduates, critic sprit, training system
